With a 35W Epilog laser 40% power, 100% speed with a 600dpi vector art image (AI) works great for laser etching an iPhone. The material on the back is a nice plastic that etched white-ish. Special thanks to Dan for experimenting… :)

Not only it will blend but it will also etch nicely under the laser.
Too much power? Cut in half. Nice geeky present: one half for your brother, the other half for your sister…
What scan speed and scan spacing does that machine use? I wonder how it compares with the raster scanner in a selective laser sintering machine.
I’m waiting for the Make: store to sell diy laser etching kits and cad/cam kits.
3D printer kits too.
How easy would this be to do at the techshop?
I recently used California Laser Etch- http://www.california-laser.com to etch my IPhone with a portrait. Came out awesome!
